Preview: Tennessee Titans vs. Indianapolis Colts – Week 17
On Sunday night, the Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts will face off in a win-or-go-home scenario. Here’s everything you need to know.
We made it. After 16 grueling weeks of injuries, inconsistency and drama, the Tennessee Titans have put themselves in prime contention for a playoff spot with just one game remaining in the regular season. Last week’s Pittsburgh Steelers loss catapulted the Titans and Indianapolis Colts into a do-or-die game, where the loser misses out on the playoffs and the winner clinches a spot in the final six of the AFC.
QB Marcus Mariota is dealing with a stinger injury that forced him out of last week’s game, but he looks likely to at least start in this game. His presence will make this a true tossup, as both teams have shown flaws throughout the season but can turn it on when necessary. This should be a good one.
Where and When
The game will be played at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee. Kickoff is set for 7:20 p.m. CT/8:20 p.m. ET.
